Korean Facial Care Regimen

I am currently addicted to Korean products and I have been following their facial care routine which is crazy. At first I can't believe how rigorous and long the steps are but in the end I decided to give it a try. I skipped some steps which Ｉ　think are not important because I am living in a tropical country.　

Here are my steps that I want to share with you.

Step 1

Wet Wipes. For removing make-up.

 I am using Great Love wet wipes, I bought this randomly in the nearest supermarket and it is Alcohol free. 12 wipes for P20. You can also buy wipes on drugstore/cosmetic stores if you like.

Step 2

Facial wash.

I am using The Face Shop Rice Water Bright Cleansing Foam I like the smell and it feels mild and delicate. I like it better than my previews facial wash which makes my face feel clean but dry. So I am glad I switched to this. I recommend this for people with combination skin.

Step 3

Facial scrub

St. Ives Blemish Control Apricot Scrub it scrubs off your dead skin. It makes your face feel soft and clean which I like. I only use this 3 times a week. I bought this in Watson’s for only P60.

Step 4

Toner or Refresher.

I am using the sample of Etude 7 in 1 wonder pore freshner. It doesn't make my skin breakout, doesn't feel dry and it's cheap compared to other toners. I want to buy the 500ml size but it is always out of stock and mine is running out T.T I need to buy this soon!

Step5

Facial Clay Mask.

I have just recently started using Innisfree Jeju Volcanic pore clay mask.  I have only used it twice but I think it has already reduced my blackheads ^,^ i only use this once a week. My sister uses this also and she said that it makes her face feel soft. By the way you have to wait for 15 mins. before washing it off.

Step 6

Facial Sheet Mask.

I use various facial masks but I always skip this step because I need to wait for another 15 minutes. Well it helps moisturize and hydrate your skin. It feels good but I am quite impatient.

Step 7

Eye cream

I am using The Faceshop Smim Repair eye cream which is one of the first Korean facial products I have bought. I saw lines under my eye and panicked so I bought this. It is effective for me because it reduces the visibility of the lines under my eye and it absorbs fast too. But I think the packaging is too bulky. Anyway I will definitely buy this again because of its effectiveness. Eye creams are pricey but I got this with their 1+1 promo. So it's a good buy for me.

Step8

Essence

I am using The Faceshop Smim Essence. It absorbs really well because of its consistency. It makes my skin look bright and healthy in the morning. I purchased this together with my eye cream so it is also a good deal.

Step 9

Moisturizer

I am recently using VMV Hypoallergenics. It is ok for me but I don't recommend it for oily skin. My sister has oily skin and goes to dermatologist for skincare, it is very expensive that’s why I am using over the counter products -.- anyway she wants to try something that is not prescribed by her dermatologist so she bought and used this once and she had a breakout ,so she gave it to me. VMV is cream based so it feels a little heavy on your face but it moisturizes my face so it’s okay. 
I was using Neutrogena moisture oil free before this and it is not cream base so it feels lighter but sometimes it makes my face itchy.

Well that is IT!

I have been doing this regimen for a month and I have already seen the difference. I felt that it has made my skin younger and healthier so I am sticking to it. I want to try other products too　so if you can recommend some to me, that would be great!
